....... Hi Joy! I've missed you!!

Thoughts... put more space between you and him...

Uneasiness is sometimes a sign the Holy Spirit uses.... at least for me.... for caution...

It's nice to spend time with a man... sometimes we want more because we are so thirsty for that kind of attention...

Sometimes this desire seems confusing when we come across a yellow or red flag....

DailyJoy: wonderful friends.

Hey Rach! Good to see you! How's the new job going?????? Glad you made it safely.

Agreed with above comments.

Hi Joy, I've been thinking about your post. My first reaction is that he was a little too "invasive". I am very, very glad you did not go back for a campfire with him! And the blocking your door thing... could have become a problem, the too close for comfort (touching your hair), I don't know- just doesn't feel quite right.

Many women thought Ted Bundy was nice, I don't think as women we can let small things like "good manners" lull us into thinking someone is "ok".

Was the church he was a minister with familiar to you? If you were to decide to meet with him, maybe a visit to his church would be a way to do it- plenty of people around and a way to get more insight into what he believes. I really think I would want to talk to more people that knew him before being alone with him much.

I did try to PM you, but I think it didn't go through because your box was full???

Very good post, HSGM! I have been wondering some of the same things...

He said that he is looking for a wife who will be a strength in his ministry and he believes I have everything he is looking for in a wife



WHAT??? You two just met!!!

My thoughts?

I am happy to give you my thoughts ... let me put it this way, if I were in your situation and that happened to me, I would not have any further contact with him. But that is me. And that is what I would do.

Couple things here: He says he is a minister. What church? When did his wife die? Where are his fruits of patience and self-control? Saying something like that to you is extremely impulsive and out of line. Where is the respect for your personal space? Why wouldn't he want to take time and get to know you ... before blurting out such a thing?

Granted, he could be on the level and a very nice man ... but from what you said, the whole thing just gives me a very odd feeling.

I agree, he was acting very odd.

Agreed with the RUN sentiment.

Let me tell you a story about what recently happened to me. I had been interacting with someone local through another site, and found out that we went to the same church (ours is about 4K on the weekends and 3 services). We decided to meet at service and talked afterwards. During the service he was sitting very close to me and into my space. I only allow Jim to do that, so it was a bit uncomfortable then, but I didn't think much about it at the time. We sat and talked afterwards for a couple of hours. I found out some things during that time that made me realize that while he talked a good game, his walk certainly wasn't what I was looking for in someone to date. But let me tell you - he said ALL the right things.

Anyway, that night he started sending me text messages - at least 2/day, calling me "hun", and doing xoxoxo, etc. WOAH!!!!!!!!!!!! I never responded - except for one. He kept sending them, and IMing me - again, I did not respond.

I finally had to tell him to stop contacting me - that I was NOT his "hun" and that I don't expect that from someone I was dating, let alone someone I only spoke to for 2 hours!

Thankfully, he's left me alone and I've basically forgotten about him.

This incident caused a great rift in a friendship, because I was viewed as being judgmental towards him (there is a LOT I've left out, but suffice it to say - he is not someone I would consider marrying because of unrepentant sin) because I would not go out with him because of his past. Well, I don't date just to date. I date someone I think I could ultimately end up marrying. Anyway.......

Don't do it. From what you've said, I got the same feeling reading it as what I got from this local guy. And while he may be perfectly harmless, he also may not.

Hey Rach how are you on? It was nice speaking to you last night...oh and the verse you sent.........I had just read it yesterday...

As for the guy........A spiritual mentor to me and I were talking last night about everything God was speaking to me last week and she had great insight on the guy from the park.

When she spoke what she felt it really clicked with my spirit.

I am going to share in the Listening to God thread........because it goes along with everything else God was showing me this past week.

Very, very cool.

Isn't Life amazing?
